Third Draft

I have changed the contents page slightly from my second draft. I changed the main image in the middle and I also added a logo of a festival. I decided to add a logo to give the readers an idea of what kind of festivals will be on that page. I also changed the photograph in the middle as I thought the original one didn't represent my artist in the way that I wanted her to be represented. 

I have also slightly changed my double page spread by making the quote bigger so that it stands out more and I have also changed the way the interview in presented in the the drop cap is on a line on its own and all of the text followed below.

Evaluation Question Seven

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?





In progression from the preliminary task to the full product I feel like I have learnt a lot such as how to edit photos effectively. One thing that I learnt was that the lighting is very important to make the image look its best. In my preliminary task I didn't know how to remove blemishes or edit photographs correctly but I feel that I learnt how to do this and how to do it so that it still looks very realistic. Another thing I didn't understand how to use correctly was levels, therefore this is why the photograph in the preliminary task was too dark.
